During our career as a primary school teacher, we have noticed that children are incorporating technology such as computers and mobile phones into their daily lives at an increasingly early age, mainly for entertainment purposes, and often bring these devices into the classroom environment. The work entitled 'Producing science videos with children at school' arose from experiences during my academic training, in which videos were produced to address maths content. This activity enabled us to realise the potential of audiovisual resources for learning and popularising science. When we returned to the classroom, we tried to implement the knowledge we had acquired during our training in the children's teaching and learning process. One of the main questions of our research was to understand whether children are capable of doing science communication. We realised that through the production of short videos, children can learn and disseminate science using language that is intelligible to their peers.
